RE: What do you do when you can't recognise your own reflection?(WARNING: very personal and contains images of self harm)

The funny thing is I’ve always had the phoniest excuses to people for explaining my self-harm injuries. The worst was when I punched a brick wall and got bloody knuckles. When my parents asked about it I told them that I thought my knuckles were just dry and maybe I need hand moisturizer. lol Interesting fact: I read that about 30% of people in the autistic spectrum engage in self-harm.

That is interesting. I used to tell people I burned my hand with scratches and of course with my feet they are already concealed.
